How to innovate for new growth in immune defense?
A large consumer health brand with strong equity in immunity came to Egg to understand how they could stretch to a new benefit space – energy.
path forward
Innovating consumer-relevant, brand–right products
The Egg team unlocked growth for the brand by developing a winning energy platform that identified territories with great unmet consumer needs. They also determined that for the brand to stretch believably, it must remain anchored in existing brand equities and identified opportunities for the brand to do just that. Through a highly generative, virtual innovation work session and rapid consumer feedback groups, the Egg team developed a pipeline of new product ideas to test quantitatively.
